Love this location!

Evgeny Zilberov

One of my favorite Calgary Public Library branches. Conveniently located, recently renovated, parking is not an issue most of the time. I visit this location 1-2 times a week and my experience is always enjoyable there.

Nice place to study and the layout of the library is designed well with lot of natural sunlight. The library hour are perfect. I dont think I have any cons to tell. Only thing is maybe for people who do combined studying please take into consideration that there are other people trying to study and we are not there to listen to your personal stories. Overall its a good environment to study with lot of options and also the books are organized in a manner that is easy to find. Also the customer service is so good.

Nice kids section

Justin Waghray

I've logged many hours here. Great place.

Andrew Robinson

Nice and clean. Parking available. Signs up saying No food or drink but I noticed at least 5 people drinking out of water bottle.

Aliece Robert

Well thought out spaces for children.

Leah Beech

Very nice library, bright and lots of seating spaces. There are very few plug-ins near tables though, which makes it difficult to complete work on a laptop if I need to charge it. Some floor plug-ins would be awesome for the wide-open areas.

Ella Z.

A good place to study and read, but seriously lacks seating. I've e gone nuts trying to look for a spare table during the hours I'm there, I really hope they can add to that.

Anh Tran

Very welcoming location and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I like the self-checkout.

Vanilla Cide

Avoid going to this library at all costs if time is relevant. there's always something holding back the printer...

Euegene K

Quiet atmosphere and a lot of choices for seating and private meeting spaces, considering the limited space of the building - a very spacious atmosphere thanks to the huge windows and modern design ornaments hung at the ceiling - also an accessibility computer for people in wheelchairs.

Ivan Sierralta

As in all library branches the place is set up to help patrons get the most out of space and their time, and staff is tremendously helpful and supportive.

Very Good Parking, Lots Of Books, Helpful Staff.

Fiona Buchanan

I love this place! It's been rough due to the pandemic and not being able to enjoy all the library services, but even still, this is one of my favorite places to take my toddler. Amazing and helpful staff, great displays, thoughtful organization of the children's books that draws the little ones in, and lots of cozy little nooks for reading.

Sherry Jurykovsky

Well lit library. Well stocked. Good selection of Large Print books. Lots of convenient parking.

kathy wallwork

Bright space, kind staff and lots of books! There are plenty of computers (both plugged and Chromebooks), space to sit and photocopiers. A great children's space with a huge selection of picture books and chapter books. A decent amount of YA novels and graphic novel section.

New and much needed renovation breaths new life into nose hill library

I absolutely love studying there. it is really amazing experience. There is so much room and full with lots of opportunities to better yourself. The only downside is the homeless people who come in to get warm in the winter. The bathrooms although well kept you will run into questionable people inside but security usually says on top of it to make sure people are safe.

The new kids area is really wonderful . Libararians are really nice and helpful.

Matthew Kramer

Calgary has a world class library system and great employees as well.

Isabelle Larochelle

Love this place, beautiful library, very bright. The down side.... One lady who works there doesn't wear a mask only a shield. And if it is because she has medical condition she shouldn't be in contact with the public. It was stressful to watch her walk around...

Michelia Alba

I went there in the morning and it was not crowded. The library is not that big but I can find lots of good new books. The staff was also very nice when I asked info about membership card. The books also placed in good location and easy to find.

Olena Makovey

Great place for family and children to learn. A must visit for all residents.

MekhLem Bladebearer

Very well thought out COVID-19 practises just like anywhere else in the city right now. Everyone inside was following the guidelines, and the staff kept people accountable which is good. Speaking of the staff, they are so friendly and helpful with everyone they interact with. I love going to the library.

Orhan ASLAN

Perfect design, respectful employers and thousands books of course. I love this place ????????

Carina Kwok

Kid's area has a lot of seating (so appreciated!) and great play space (when not closed for covid). Librarians are always friendly and helpful. Program rooms are spacious. Stacks are low enough for an adult to see over and lit from inside, making it easy to read book spines. Children's books are arranged so books are easily visible. Self checkout machines work great, and automatic return is handy.

Rosie Taylor

Great library ! Plenty of seating and polite staff. Very quiet and comforting

Yellowknee Arlene

Staff were very much helpful when I needed help printing something off from my email. They even went as far as calling me a cab when I was ready to leave.

Jill Purdy

Large, spacious, comfortable

Jose Vazquez Diaz

aemarsfan

This is a beautiful, bright library with a fabulous selection of books! I love coming here to pick up my holds, and most of the time I leave with a few extra books that caught my eye on the way through. The parking lot is huge, which is great if you are driving here.

Katy Schlahs

Super friendly folks, and almost always have what I am looking for.

Mohammad Soufisiavash

Really friendly and helpful staff.

Eddie Moncada

Nice place to study when the staff isn’t being loud. I thought libraries were a quiet place to read, I must’ve thought wrong. Chatting and obnoxiously laughing between colleagues becomes a bit of an issue when you work at a library and are being disrespectful to those that are actually getting work done. Tried to bring this issue up and the only thing I got was attitude and reminder that masks are mandatory (I was fully wearing my mask) ??????¿¿¿ I never thought I’d write a google review about a public library, but I really don’t understand how the staff at a *literal* library could be so rude and socially unaware.

Ke Deng

It's not that noisy with kids, although some areas does look like a childcare facility. The library is clean, tidy, and very bright. Staff are friendly and helpful as well. Printing service was also available in this covid situation, with deducted amount of computers still open for use. Would recommend a visit.

DAS

Dangerous for seniors. Parents & staff let kids run around bashing into people and there are tripping hazards - stools are pulled out so little kids can access the water fountain and self-checkouts, but people with limited mobility or vision cannot.

Michael M

Friendly staff and newly renovated. Kids love the fire truck and toys too.

Michael Zacharias

Great library for 30 years. but it hardly didn't need any renovations.

Katy Horvath

A glorified childcare facility. Always unsupervised children running around and screaming. The librarians do absolutely nothing to combat it. And the printer always seems to be broken. Women's washrooms are horribly unkept.

Chandler Besad

Huge selection friendly staff

Andrea Fernandez

Clean. Not crowded. Workers a lil nervous. Can't say I blame them.

Kiranjot Mangat

It is very well built and quiet. But seldom do I find a spot to sit.

Yunjae Kim

Good

Lisa Torry

Curbside pickup has been great, the staff are amazing. But I love being back in the stacks to browse through the books in person!

Rosa MD

I like this library so much! I hope they provide more tables and chairs. The collections are great. The staffs are very helpful and friendly. The place is clean, tidy and bright. Good place for studying. I also hope they fix the printers, it seems that they broke often.

Kin Chan

This library is newly renovated! Like the new design, and new equipment. The staff is friendly as before though. :)

Livia Fajkusz

For the re-opening, the library stocked up with lots of new books, especially for the kids and teens. Yay!

Lucky One

Very nice and helpful staff. My favorite library

Aashish Gaurav

So much to love! An ideal tutoring environment (I see numerous tutoring lessons here) and a fantastic family weekend learning place. I love the organization of books and the friendliness of staff.

Jeff D

Calgary is lucky to have such a great library system! Friendly and helpful staff as well.

David Reid

Excellent staff lots of computers available

Dwayne Peters

Huge selection friendly staff

Bob Smith

Good place and good parking but limited seating. Seating is all open but no quite study area it gets noisy with kids running around during the day. Plus the place is cold in winter so dress in layers.

ejaz gorsi

Good new look and bright space with lots of books

Lanie Ang

Everything is going well. Books, videos are checked in at the foyer area, inside there is social distancing. Checkouts are every other checkout machine. Looking good.

Fred Bevyone

Friendly staff

Maidee Penaranda

Is anyone else wishing, public library's had a faxing system free with our memberships? It would make life's better for everyone who needs to fax and goes there to print..
